The only Bristol I have seen with wire wheels is a 401. I was looking at a Alvis 21 with wire wheels and thought it looked superb.

If the Astons and Ferraris could cope with them I am sure they must be up to the task, they might be a bit flash for anything post 411 though.

I have seen a Morgan with ultra low profile tyres on wire wheels and it looked fantastic.

A job for someone with Photoshop perhaps?

For the wire wheels I was thinking 408 to 411 S1 and maybe 405

Greg,

Having seen that car once, it should not be allowed out in daylight.
Is that the one you thought wire wheels would look good on?

It could not make it any worse! Quote:

And I was thinking the 411 S1 for the wire wheels.
